Last weeks top 6 teams all won this week. Really, there werent any big upsets. Sure, Im upset that the Lions cant figure out how to score touchdowns. But thats the price of being a Lions fan. Of course, at the bottom the 49ers and Browns are continuing to suck it up. [table id=22 /]

The new era of horror comedy is under way. With the success of movies like Piranha 3D and Sharknado,the floodgates opened to allow for a wide range of crazy ideas, many involving some sort of animal. The movie starts with a canister of bio hazard waste falling off of a truck, which makes its way downstream to a beaver dam and breaks open. The story shifts…

Horror anthology movies are still alive and well. While this is nowhere near as good as Creepshow or Tales from the Darkside: The Movie, it does have its moments. Of the four, I liked the third one the best. It was called "Don't Fall" and involved a group of campers who find some cave paintings that serve as a warning. One of the friends becomes possessed…
